Alright, there's something odd about any bird named "Megapode" but I suppose that were this creature in more abundant numbers then perhaps it wouldn't strike me so. I'll be honest with you though - I like Tonga, if only for the sake of their coat of arms as shown on the obverse of this exquisite proof silver Crown. Check out the beautiful use of the reflective fields on the obverse. If you're a world coin collector with a spot open for Pacific Island coins or bird coins then this unusual proof silver Crown would be a wonderful compliment to your collection.
